Cute little cottage
This little cottage is the perfect location for a weekend away. The host was very helpful and charming and the cottage is super clean and well appointed. Cottage has a fantastic view of the Bay and we got to watch the influence of the famous tides of the Bay of Fundy has on this area.

Lovely Cottage, Lovely Location, Lovely Host
The cottage overlooks the Annapolis River near a dam, so we got to see all sorts of tidal variations. It’s just a few minutes drive from Annapolis Royal where there are a number of restaurants. Valentina was a very welcoming host and provided pretty much everything one could need or want.

Comfortable and quiet
This is a very well appointed property with a lots of thoughtful touches to make for a very comfortable stay. The location is very good and is a great place to observe the extreme tidal range found here. If you like peace and quiet you will find it here. The walk into Annapolis Royal only takes half an hour and the paths are good.

Everything about our experience was excellent. The cottage is picturesque (right on the water), not to mention very clean, well equipped and comfortable. Valentina is extremely kind and welcoming and goes to endless trouble ensuring guests have what they need. It is especially wonderful the cottage is pet-friendly. We would stay again in a heartbeat. There is so much to do in the area with its fascinating historical sites and beautiful natural scenery. Highly recommended.

Quiet, relaxing Vaca
Valentina was on top of everything. Answered our call when we were delayed in arriving, location is clean and has everything needed for a quiet, relaxing vaca. Tides were so interesting to watch, town was very nice, bike trails were great. Railtrail for my wife and I were wonderful and the new mountain bike trails for me were just 10 minutes down the street.

Little piece of paradise!
Little Red Cottage was a dream come true! Valentina has thought of absolutely everything to make you feel right at home. We left feeling rested and relaxed! Cuddles in the yard with Cooper was an added bonus! Take Valentina's advice and get the smoked bacon from Lequille Country Store! You will not be disappointed! We look forward to our next visit!

Cottage of tides and serenity
I would give the Little Red Cottage 10 stars if I could! One of the best properties ever!! Valentina is a gracious easygoing host! The cottage is a gem--has everything you need. Went to Port Royal & Annapolis Royal. Dinner at Composa was excellent. Ate lunch at Fort Annes Cafe- owner Jeff is a hoot and cooks great haddock! The patio at the cottage provided the most interesting views with the major tidal changes-enjoying wine while watching the birds and tides was amazing. Thank you, Valentina, for a perfect start to our Nova Scotia vacation!

Every expectation (& more!!) met...
'Little Red Cottage' was everything that is it as shown & described...& more. Valentina has thought of details that when you notice them, you realize 'yes! I meant to bring that...I so could use that!' She especially made certain we had what we needed if tropical storm Lee took out power. (It didn't) The property was spotless and so pretty. Bed was incredibly comfortable and linen cozy. My favourite spot was curling up on the kitchen bay window seat overlooking the river. I've actually 'taken home' some of her kitchen ideas/designs. Lots to do & see across the river in Annapolis Royal. Again, Valentina had all that info covered for us. Don't miss a chance to spend some time in this exquisite cottage...you will not be disappointed.

Great for Exploring the Annapolis Valley
The Little Red Cottage is charming and conveniently located near Annapolis Royal, Digby and the Bay of Fundy. The cottage was clean and had all the amenities we expect when traveling. Our host, Valentina, was attentive and gave us great suggestions for enjoying the area. I wish we had booked a longer stay at the property.

This is a lovely, magical cottage with everything you might need at your fingertips! The bucolic views of the Annapolis River and the surrounding area are soothing and peaceful. And watching the tides in a front row seat can't be beat. Thank you so much to our wonderful hosts.
